But sure, keep telling us how Democratic administrations not acting like right-wing criminal shitstain Republicans is "hypocritical", but deliberately disregarding the vast difference in foreign policy between the two parties so you can screech "America bad!" even when it does the right thing somehow isn't.
but deliberately disregarding the vast difference in foreign policy
You forgot Obama with Egypt, Libya, Ukraine, and the extra-judicial assassination of American Citizens.
i'll provide more examples from obama, clinton, and biden once i see a worthwhile response.
Sometimes a hypocrite is nothing more than a man in the process of changing. -Brandon Sanderson
Just because someone did something horrible in the past it does not mean we cannot advocate for something good now.
People can change, bit by bit, moment by moment. Sometimes it might even be for the better.
The US isnβt going to change. This is how they are. They meddle with the world and have been doing so throughout their history.
The US isn't a person though. It is a system that relies on imperialist domination in order to survive. Do you have evidence that the system has fundamentally changed away from that? Because that would be some pretty miraculous evidence.
USA hypocrisy is theatrics to get to make rules and order everyone around with a sanctimonious attitude.
This is how I feel watching young American be mad at Israel for doing things that the Americans did to my people and never even apologized for
Idk if hypocrisy is intentionally misspelled but if it is that's pretty clever
That's crazy
hypercrazy, if you will.
Terrorist nations gonna terrorist. The list of US-couped governments is pretty long.
The world would be much better off without the USA.
I'm sure the superpower that fills the void will be the paragon of morality
At least it won't be that fascist-filled shithole. There's a hole in the world like a great black pit, and it goes by the name of 'Murica.
As an empire, yes. That doesn't mean we want American people to suffer (I say this as a European who also thinks European imperialist countries should suffer the same fate)
I agree with you, but it's also true that imperialism is way deeper rooted in the American forma mentis than it is in most European.
True
